    2. 1.2

      Jacinda, Chippy and Grant have given evidence already; presumably their evidence will all be made public in the final report. Hipkins said he attended for a 2 hour interview and they ran out of questions after an hour.

      The sad anti-vax anti-mandate wankers need to take a look at themselves in the mirror.

      As Jacinda says in her book:

      "So when someone approaches me to tell me that they thought all our choices were wrong. maybe expressing themselves less politely than that, perhaps even with fists raised and their face twisted with fury, or in an expletive-filled rant, that's when I remember that all those hard, imperfect decisions saved twenty thousand lives. And that the person in front of me might just be one of them".

        "…saved twenty thousands lives."

        Also two of my clients with complex underlying conditions, and myself as well (age, T2 diabetes, high blood pressure).

        Ms Ardern was our Winston Churchill, in our Hour of Need.

    3. 1.3

      The Covid enquiry finished ages ago. Good on them for ignoring the current kangaroo court. If we are now in a position where one government can carry out a public enquiry into a previous one, then I look forward to the public enquiry into the social damage caused by the Coalition’s austerity economics – coming in 2027.
